Round Roof Box Cars

[NW Mailing List]

N&W had three classes of round-roof boxcars.  The class B-1 cars were 40-foot single door cars rebuilt into regular-roof cars with 8-foot doors and I don’t recall the new class.

The class B-2 and B-3 cars were double-door cars 40-foot and 50-foot respectively.  They were all gone when I went to work at Shaffers Crossing Car Department in 1959.

They were rebuilt with conventional roofs, but I don't remember the dares off hand.

I have a friend that was asking me when the round roof boxcars were 

removed from the roster. I have no idea. Can anyone help with an answer?
